Thanks to Jonathon Such for passing on the news.  This piece below is borrowed from the Road Runners Club in the UK. My condolences to family and friends.

http://www.roadrunnersclub.org.uk/

We have received the very sad news that Cavin Woodward, RRC Member 3467, passed away very suddenly and unexpectedly on Thursday 26th February, aged 62.

Cavin was one of the greatest British Ultra Distance runners ever. He set a World 100 Mile Track best of 11hrs 38mins 54secs in October 1975. He won the London to Brighton race that year as well as twelve other finishes. He also ran World class times at various othe Ultra distances on the track and on the road.

No other details are available at this time.

Cavin was a long time and loyal RRC member, a lovely man and a very great runner.

The photo shows Cavin at the London end of the London to Brighton route in 1975, the year he won the race in 5hrs 12min 7 secs (52miles 1172 yds). This was one of his 12 Brighton finishes spanning the years 1971 to 1998.
